Description of Public Justice Center
The Public Justice Center was established in 1985 by professor Michael Millemann and attorney Nevett Steele as a nonprofit legal services organization dedicated to protecting and expanding the rights of the poor. Frustrated by the lack of systemic-impact legal work in the state of Maryland, the founders formed the PJC in order to bring widespread, long-term reform to the systems that cause injustice for the economically disadvantaged. During the last 22 years, the PJC has seen steady growth in size, organizational stability, and professional expertise. Our staff is highly qualified and has the experience and ability to engage in long-term projects. In addition to staff, the PJC's resources are supplemented by thousands of volunteer hours from the private bar. The Board of Directors has 30 members, representing a wealth of experience in law, medicine, public policy, education, and community and labor organizations. The PJC is a leader in public interest law reform in Maryland and in the mid-Atlantic region, increasingly taking on projects of national import. Look at our current focus areas to see the difference we're making.
